Any light oil should do, 3 in 1 for example.  EVOO might work if you have an
extra virgin along on the trip.  I have used nose grease to lube the pump
leather.

Peace be with you,

Subject: [Paddlewise] Stove oil

I am getting my camping gear ready for this years exploits and I am
needing a tube of the oil lubricant for my MSR Whisper Lite stove. The
lubricant usually comes in a small white plastic tube. I just need two
tubes but the only way I can find to buy it is to buy the full
maintenance kit for the stove. I have enough spare parts I just need the
lubricant. Does any one know where I can buy the tubes separate or what
kind of lubricant it is so I can buy the equivalent at the local
hardware store?
